Salman Taseer Assassinated

BREAKING NEWS...Salman Taseer, the Governor of Pakistan's Punjab providence, was assassinated Tuesday by his own security guard. 
The assassination occurred in the capital city in Islamabad's Kohsar Market, which is a tourist hot spot.  The security guard, Malik Mumtaz Hussain Qadri, was arrested after he turned himself in and confessed to killing Taseer.  When questioned by interrogators, the guard said he killed Taseer because he was angry about the politician's view on the country's blasphemy law, when he called it "black law". 
Salman Taseer was shot when he was leaving the market after lunch with a friend.  He was taken to the hospital, but died later from loss of massive amounts of blood. 
The murder of Punjab Providence Governor Salman Taseer is the most high profile assassination since former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated in December 2007.
